Subject: [PATCH rcu 08/32] rcu-tasks: Idle tasks on offline CPUs are in quiescent states

Any idle task corresponding to an offline CPU is in an RCU Tasks Trace
quiescent state.  This commit causes rcu_tasks_trace_postscan() to ignore
idle tasks for offline CPUs, which it can do safely due to CPU-hotplug
operations being disabled.
